Poison Girls
The Poison Girls were an English anarcho-punk band. The female singer/guitarist, Vi Subversa, was a middle-aged mother of two at the band's inception, and wrote songs that explored sexuality and gender roles, usually from an anarchist perspective.〔(http://www.headheritage.co.uk/unsung/albumofthemonth/1885 )〕〔(http://books.google.ca/books?id=nU7Cl6HxIbAC&lpg=PA49&ots=5Y1vBmBsah&dq=vi%20subversa%20punk&pg=PA49#v=onepage&q=vi%20subversa%20punk&f=false )〕 The original Poison Girls line-up also included: Lance D'Boyle (drums); Richard Famous (guitar/vocals); Nil (tapes/bass/electric violin); and Bernhardt Rebours (bass/synthesiser/piano).
==History==
Poison Girls formed in Brighton in 1976, before moving to Burleigh House in Essex, near to Dial House, the home of fellow anarchist band Crass, with whom they worked closely for a number of years, playing over 100 gigs with the band. In 1979 they contributed to the revival of the peace movement by playing a number of benefit gigs with Crass and paying for the production of the first CND badges since CND's heyday. Again in 1979, and again with Crass, they proved influential to the establishment of the short lived Wapping Autonomy Centre by contributing the track "Persons Unknown" to a split single with Crass (who contributed "Bloody Revolutions") and raising over £10,000. Their song "Bully Boys", an attack on violent machismo led to the band being attacked by members of the National Front. The band also set up the label X-N-Trix alongside a publishing arm for the ''Impossible Dream''〔http://www.poisongirls.co.uk/impossible_dream_issues.html〕 magazine and recording studios for other artists.
Though their last studio recording to date was in 1985, a number of Poison Girls compilations have since been released, and their songs frequently appear on punk anthologies.
Poison Girls were involved with the production of ''Aids — The Musical'', through a company called The Lenya Hobnoobs Theatre Company. They did another show called ''Mother Russia was a Lesbian'' in 1992, and reunited for a show at the London Astoria II in 1995, celebrating the 60th birthday of Vi Subversa. Currently, Richard Famous works as a painter and decorator. Vi Subversa lives in Brighton. The pair have performed as That Famous Subversa, a cabaret act they did together before the Poison Girls.
